I think GSP v Hughes has a big chance of being the fight of the night. The will be alot of back and forth action. not to say Chucks fight wont but ill bank on this fight to be a great one.
I think the machida fight could be great and it will in all likely hood last longer than the first round which is more than can be said for wandy/chuck and GSP/Hughes.
I'm really looking forward to Sokky vs Lyoto, but don't expect to see a battle. It will either be another Lyoto rapefest or another Sokky KO. I think GSP vs Hughes will be the best fight.
Although I'd put my money on St. Pierre, I think Hughes is really going to bring his A-game. With his career coming to an end and the fact that he asked for GSP; this should be a really good fight.
Chuck vs Wandy will probably only last 1 round so it won't be FOTN probably. Hughes vs GSP easily could, and so could Sokky vs Machida. Hughes vs GSP is pretty much gaurenteed to be good though, where Sokky vs Machida has the possibility to suck.
Hughes vs St-Pierre, Liddell vs Wandy and Machida vs Sokky are all promising to be excellent fights. On the other hand any one of them could be over really quick. I think that Hughes vs GSP will be over quick. I think that Liddell vs Wandy will be more of a slow moving chess match. I'm picking Machida vs Sokky as the fight of the night.
Wandy always brings an exciting fight. Hence the nickname 'Axe Murderer'. But I aggree with the folks that don't see this fight going past the first. I really think Wandrlei is going to overwhelm Chuck in the first if he doesn't get clipped and taken out in the process.
Hughes vs. St Pierre. It's gonna be a bit more competitive this time around, but I believe there will be a stoppage. I can see Liddell/Silva going to decision, but it'll be exciting. It's still gonna be interesting to see the crowd reaction compared to them.
hughes/GSP is gonna be 5 rounds of hell. i dont expect a stoppage. GSP lost to serra and wants to prove he is the best fighter and it appears to me like hughes is more focused then hes been in a long time. i expect nothing less then FOTN.
I agree with the majority it seems. GSP vs Hughes probably has the highest probability of being the best fight of the night. Chuck vs Wandy and Machida vs Sok will probably be over quickly if they are good.
Silva vs. Liddell will steal the show. wether it ends quick or goes the distance, the mere epic nature of this bout will make it the fight of the night
What about the evasivness and speed of Lyoto? I don't really see him getting caught like Arona or Nog.
